Emma is Project Manager at OUPR, studying Natural Sciences with Open University and joined the team earlier this year. As project manager, she monitors the team’s progress and assists with tasks to help keep everyone on track.

“While I don’t necessarily have a technical background, I really wanted to be involved with a project that complimented my studies. I’m currently studying for a degree in astronomy and planetary science and this is a great place for me to network with fellow students.

As you can imagine, these contest’s aren’t cheap and we’re currently crowdfunding for these projects. Please donate if you can, or spread the word and help students like me, gain valuable experience during their studies. We’re one of a handful of UK Universities to compete at these international competitions and I’m glad I get to do my bit to represent my university.”
